Safety Warnings
Installation Instructions:
This product must not be used in locations exposed to the dangers of explosion.
Make sure to install this product as shown in
Chapter 2, «Installation»
of this
manual.
When installing this product, make sure that you are only using genuine MOBOTIX
parts and MOBOTIX connection cables.
Make sure that you are installing this product on a solid surface that provides
for a sturdy installation of the fixing elements used.
Electrical installation: Electrical systems and equipment may only be installed,
modified and maintained by a qualified electrician or under the direction and super-
vision of a qualified electrician in accordance with the applicable electrical guidelines.
Make sure to properly set up all electrical connections.
Electrical surges: MOBOTIX cameras are protected against the eects of small elec-
trical surges by numerous measures. These measures, however, cannot prevent the
camera from being damaged when stronger electrical surges occur. Special care
should be taken when installing the camera outside of buildings to ensure proper
protection against lightning, since this also protects the building and the whole
network infrastructure.
Max. power consumption of attached extension modules: The power consump-
tion of all attached
MxBus modules
must
not exceed 2.5W
. When attaching mod-
ules to the MxBus connector
and
the USB connector, the
power consumption of all
attached modules must not exceed 3W
,
if the camera is powered by PoE class3
.
If
PoE class2
is used,
the power consumption of all attached modules must not
exceed 1W!
Never touch the lens: Due to the high performance of the M25M, the area of the
image sensor can get quite hot, especially when the ambient temperature is also
high. This does not aect the proper functioning of the camera in any way. For this
reason, the product must not be installed within the reach of persons without the
lens cover.
Power o before opening the camera: Make sure the power supply is disconnected
before opening the camera (i.e., for installing or replacing sensor modules and SD
cards).

M25M Camera Manual
FOREWORD
Dear MOBOTIX customer,
Congratulations on your decision to purchase a professional and modern
HiRes network camera “Made in Germany”! The robust and versatile M25M
is a cost-ecient and professional mono camera solution with interchange-
able lenses for indoor and outdoor applications (IP66). You can select from a
wide range of lenses, from Hemispheric to Super Wide-Angle to Tele lenses
(now up to 320mm) and CSVario lens. Add to that the proven advantages
that are inherent to the MOBOTIX concept, such as the integrated event, alarm and
telephone features and the modern long-term storage directly in the camera with
all of its benefits.
The weatherproof MxBus and MiniUSB interfaces of the camera allow attaching
MOBOTIX interface boxes and standard devices, such as 3G/UMTS modems, external
storage devices, etc. The integrated 4GB SD card flash storage is easily exchanged for
larger storage requirements, providing for secure long-term storage.
The introduction of the newest five-megapixel sensor technology with increased light
sensitivity not only generates more brilliant images with more details, it also delivers color
images of higher quality under lowlight conditions. Another improvement – The M25M-IT
now generates HD images (1280x 720 pixels) instead of the VGA images of predecessor
models (640x 480 pixels).

1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW
1.1 M25M Allround
1.1.1 General Product Characteristics
Model Variants
The M25M is available as Secure and IT models with dierent feature sets. By default, the
M25M is equipped with either a color or a Black&White image sensor (Day/Night) and
an L25 Super Wide-Angle lens (horizontal image angle of 82°). If desired, the camera
can be fitted with one of six other lenses with horizontal image angles of 7°, 13°, 27°,
40°, 55° and 180° or it is available as a special version with CS Vario lens. Every M25M
comes with a pre-installed and formatted 4GB MicroSD card and a VarioFlex mount for
fast and easy installation.
Due to its extreme distortion, the M25M with the L12 Fisheye lens is especially challenging
where the adjustment of hardware and software is concerned. For this reason, the lenses
M25M models with
L12 and CSVario lens
are only available as
Secure variants (details
see
Section 1.3
)

of the L12 variant are not interchangeable. The fine-tuning of the lens at the factory is an
extremely laborious and precise process and the setting should not be changed any more.
Complete HiRes Video Solutions by MOBOTIX
As opposed to conventional solutions, MOBOTIX cameras with their decentralized approach
oer so much more – state-of-the-art, network-based video security technology that increases
operating eciency and yields a high degree of every-day usefulness.
Extraordinary Picture Quality
Image quality is the one key criterion of a security camera. Due to their internal video analysis
and data storage capabilities, the decentralized MOBOTIX systems are independent of the
available network bandwidth. As a result, the system provides for eciently storing and
managing the video streams of a virtually unlimited number of cameras with the highest
resolution at a reasonable cost.
5 Megapixel Image Sensors (5MP)
MOBOTIX cameras possess high-resolution image sensors with 5megapixel resolution and
excellent light sensitivity, which translates into more details when zooming and more clear-
cut advantages for every user. By using the 5MP technology in their color and black&white
image sensors, MOBOTIX cameras deliver convincing image quality and details even in
bad weather and under lowlight conditions. Another important plus: thanks to its internal
pre-processing of the image data, the camera can generate video streams with up to
30 frames per second.
QXGA Image Format: 2.5 Times More Detail Than Full HD
The 5MP sensor has a resolution of 2592x 1944 pixels on both day and night sensors.
While the image sensor shows its full strength when zooming the live image, the maximum
image size per sensor has the more user-friendly QXGA format.
Low Light Conditions– No Problem
The maximum resolution of the color and black&white image sensors is 5megapixels.
The higher light sensitivity of the new color image sensors now allow using MOBOTIX color
cameras around the clock even when the illumination is low.
MxLEO: Exposure Optimization and Reduced Image Noise
MxLEO– the MOBOTIX Lowlight Exposure Optimization– is an innovative technology that
provides an entirely new experience in digital image optimization in all cameras running
firmware 4.1.9 and higher. On the one hand, the improved light sensitivity of the MOBOTIX
5MP sensors drastically reduces exposure times. MxLEO, the exposure and image optimi-
zation program especially developed for these conditions, on the other hand, generates
perceptibly better and more detailed images especially under low-light conditions below
25Lux. Such conditions are typical at a parking lot at night that is illuminated by regular
lights (approx. 10 to 25Lux). Or in a building after hours, in which the emergency lights
are burning (approx. 5Lux). This significantly reduces motion blur that is typical of longer
12/136 M25M Camera Manual: Product Overview

www.mobotix.com • [email protected]
exposure times with little light and thus provides much more image detail (faces, license
plates, etc.) for proper identification.
Hemispheric Technology
Thanks to the fisheye technology with integrated distortion correction, MOBOTIX Hemispheric
cameras with their L12 lenses provide the perfect overview. Meaningful 180-degree pan-
orama images from wall-to-wall and from the floor to the ceiling don’t leave any corners
of the room unmonitored. In contrast to other systems, the correction of the distorted
hemispheric image happens directly in the camera and not on the computer, thus drasti-
cally reducing the size of the image before it is transferred and stored. This approach
reduces the network load and allows showing dozens of hemispheric cameras on a
computer or a smartphone.
Robust and Maintenance-Free
Thanks to its low power consumption of about 4.5Watts and
the total absence of mechanically moving parts, the M25M
models feature a wide operating temperature range of
–30 to +50°C/–22 to +122°F. Since MOBOTIX cameras nei-
ther fog up nor require heating, power can be supplied via
the network cabling using standard PoE products according to
PoE standard IEEE 802.3af. M25M IT and Secure models are
absolutely dustproof and resistant against water jets (IP66). In
combination with the supplied M25M wall and ceiling mount, you can use the camera
in outdoor applications and installation over flush-mounted sockets so that the cabling
remains perfectly concealed.
A Master of Adaptability
The M25M models are accompanied by an extensive range of easily replaceable and
interchangeable lenses and a robust lens protector made of scratchproof special-pur-
pose plastic or glass. Application-optimized options for installation on walls, ceilings and
poles, for supplying power, or expanding the functions of the camera are also available.
Furthermore, MOBOTIX customers can take advantage of MxEasy or the professional
control center software MxControlCenter free of charge and with an unlimited user and
camera license. If required, an M25M can even be upgraded to function as a powerful
intercom system by adding the MOBOTIX ExtIO module.
High-Resolution Sees More and Costs Less
One M25M equipped with a hemispheric or standard wide angle lens is usually all that
is required to monitor either an entire room or the four lanes of a gas station. The high
degree of image detail not only reduces the number of required cameras, but also mini-
mizes system costs by reducing the wiring complexity, emergency power requirements
and number of recording devices required. All M25M cameras feature direct recording to
integrated MicroSD cards or external USB drives and can therefore be used in standalone
operation without creating additional network load.

Universal Application from Vacation Homes to Airports
MOBOTIX M25M cameras are suitable for use in large-scale facilities, such as airports,
given their unlimited scalability and high performance. However, they are equally suitable
for use in small commercial or private buildings thanks to their integrated event, storage,
alarm and telephony functions. In addition, MOBOTIX recommends the M25M with hemi-
spheric L12 lens as a superb and inspiring webcam.
The Right Lens for Every Application
No MOBOTIX camera has ever had so many lens options! For the M25M, MOBOTIX oers
seven lenses ranging from the 7° tele to the 180° Fisheye lens.

In combination with the hemispheric L12 lens (180° horizontal image angle), the M25M
becomes a Hemispheric camera.
The M25M-Sec-CSVario is an M25M model that is shipped with a CS mount and a compact
L29–L64 1/2” Vario lens. To protect the lens against the weather, this version comes with
a longer lens cover and threads for an external filter. This cover will work for lenses, which
have a maximum diameter of 36mm and which are not longer than 43mm. Because
of the image sensor’s size of 1/2.5”, you can only use CS and C mount lenses (C mount
lenses with adapter ring) for 1/2.5” sensors or larger. In comparison with MOBOTIX fixed
lenses, Vario lenses are less robust and less reliable in the long run. For this reason, Vario
lenses are typically used in applications where recording conditions change frequently,
e.g., for surveillance of dierent construction sites.
MOBOTIX Standard Lenses Are Easily Exchanged
Note that you can change all lenses of the M25M yourself on site whenever necessary
(except the hemispheric L12 lens). Each lens is secured by a lock ring. The ordered lens is
factory-aligned and quality-tested in the camera, which makes on-site camera focusing
unnecessary in most cases. Each M25M is available for delivery with a lens of your choos-
ing or no lens at all.

The image area captured by the camera varies depending on the selected lens (see
Section 1.3, «Technical Specifications»
). With a Super Wide Angle lens (L25 with 82°),
for example, almost an entire room can be recorded from one corner. An L160 Tele lens
enables an M25M with a high-resolution 5 megapixel sensor to clearly record a license
plate number, for example, from a distance of approximately 75meters.
Or even the serial number of a bill from a distance of 2m/6ft.

Virtual PTZ (vPTZ) – Without Motor
The M25M can also zoom in on details. This vPTZ function (virtual Pan, Tilt,
Zoom) is a standard feature in the integrated M25M camera software. The
image from the hemispheric camera can be enlarged using, for example,
the mouse wheel, a joystick or a software-controlled PTZ panel and you
can “move” the view to any section of the image. This provides the features
of a mechanical PTZ camera without the disadvantages of maintenance and
wear.
Depending on the platform used to operate the camera (Internet browser, MxEasy,
MxControlCenter), the vPTZ function may work in a dierent manner. When using MxEasy
or MxControlCenter, for example, specific software tools and an optional joystick make
virtually zooming, panning and tilting much more comfortable. Even if you are using only an
Internet Explorer (with activated ActiveX plug-in), you can use an optionally attached joystick.

Simultaneous Corrected Live Image and Full Image Recording
All conventional, motorized PTZ cameras only store the image that is currently viewed as
the live image (live image recording). This has one serious disadvantage as the recording
can only show what has happened in the “visible” portion of the image; the rest is lost and
cannot be examined later on. For this reason, MOBOTIX has added the new full image
recording feature to the M25M. This will not store the currently viewed image that reflects
the pan/tilt position and the zoom setting chosen by the user, but the full sensor image,
without vPTZ settings or image correction. When examining the recorded images, the
vPTZ features again come into play, as they allow zooming the visible image and using
the pan/tilt features to examine every corner of the recorded full image.
Example: The persons highlighted by the red circles in the center image would not have
been recorded by a regular PTZ camera; the full image recording of the M25M in this
example allows determining the exact time at which these persons had entered the
image area recorded by the camera. A browser (Internet Explorer with MxPEG ActiveX
plug-in), MxControlCenter or the new, multi-platform application MxEasy can be used
to examine the recorded sequences.
Integrated vPTZ func-
tions allow the complete
stored full image to be
analyzed at a later point
in time (in MxEasy and
MxControlCenter)

Internal DVR
The M25M-Secure features direct recording to the integrated MicroSD
card, which makes the camera fully independent of any external
storage media, even for longer periods of time. The camera internally
stores high-resolution video, without requiring an external recording
device or PC and therefore without overloading the network whatso-
ever. Old recordings can be overwritten automatically or automatically
deleted after a specified period of time. When using a 16GB SD card,
for example, the camera can store more than a quarter million event
images in VGA format (640x480). For security reasons, the camera
can even encrypt the stored data.
Power failures are not an issue, since the video and image sequences remain safely
stored on the SD card. Access to stored video sequences is possible at any time from
the camera user interface in the browser, MxControlCenter or MxEasy. If you would like
to archive sequences, you can export the required data to a PC or USB stick for evidence
purposes, for example.
MxActivitySensor Video Motion Analysis: Secure Detection, Avoiding False Alarms
Regardless if there are large objects in the foreground or small objects in the background
MxActivitySensor will only trigger video recording and alarm messaging if something
important is happening. Interference such as trees shaking in the wind, moving shadows
and clouds and snow falling will no longer lead to false alarms. Since all of this is filtered
automatically, all that remains is to set the direction of movement of objects that should
trigger alarms.

1.2 M25M with Special Lens Hemispheric L12
Equipped with the 180° L12 lens, an entire room can be ideally monitored using only one
M25M, which replaces the time-consuming and expensive installation of several standard
cameras. The overview image provided by a single M25M, which may be personalized in
a number of ways according to specific user requirements, not only reduces the number of
required cameras, but also minimizes the system costs by reducing the wiring complexity,
emergency power requirements and number of recording devices required.
L12 Lens: High-Resolution 180° Panorama
When several cameras are monitoring a single room, it is dicult to understand the room
layout due to the dierent viewing directions of each individual camera. This makes it hard
to comprehend the overall setting. The new panorama function of the M25M with the L12
lens delivers a widescreen, corrected image of a high-resolution 180° allround view. High
image quality is achieved through the use of a five-megapixel color sensor and the new
hemispheric lens of the M25M.
With approximately 0.6 megapixels (1280x480 pixels), an M25M panorama image only
requires a fraction of the original data volume or bandwidth of a QXGA full image (1280x1536
pixels).
